Parameters

browsePathElement

The browse path element.

This is typically the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Navigation.UABrowsePathElement object.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

defaultNamespaceUriString

The default namespace URI string. When this parameter is not a null reference, the formatted string will not explicitly include the namespace specifier with the target name if it is equal to the default namespace.

The value represents an OPC UA namespace URI string. Any string can be passed to this parameter (i.e. will not cause System.ArgumentException), but not all values make sense and will work when an operation using them is attempted.

The value of this parameter can be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Return Value

This is an extension method (info: C#, VB.NET). In languages that have support for extensions methods (such as C# and VB.NET), you can use the extension method as if it were a regular method on the object that is its first parameter. In other languages (such as with Python.NET), you will call the extension as a static method, and pass it the object on which it acts as its first parameter.
